Summary
Nahyuta is drowning again. His father is on the chopping block, Apollo wants to join him, and if Nahyuta doesn't win this case… "I speak to you now as a servant of the Holy Mother, Mr. Justice. Do not defend this man tomorrow. He is surely guilty. Her Holiness does not favor the self-flagellating; do not bring death upon yourself for a misplaced sense of duty."
"I don't care. It doesn't matter; I'm defending him. You cannot change my mind."
"You would put your own father to death?" Miles Edgeworth asks, expression aghast behind his glasses. Nahyuta wants to say he wouldn't, that he's sorry, that he doesn't want to, and please, Chief Prosecutor, don't you understand this feeling? Don't you all have Trucy Wright to consider? Don't you know this?
-
The small sliver of the sarcophagus that's open shows that pendant in all its bright blue glory, clasped in the waxy hand of a man Nahyuta saw breathing not three hours ago. -

Summary
There was Klav and Kris, and that was it. Brothers in arms, blood relation accidental, the dream team; the dynamic duo in the dark age of the law. It suits them, two sides of the same coin that they are: polished, professional, traditional Kristoph with his designer neckties and clear coat manicures is a premier defense attorney. Klavier unbuttons his shirt to an almost shameless degree and gets on stage in luxury leather before touching up his purple polish for another televised prosecution.
It's all very fitting, if you ask him. The tortured artist without a father or a penny to his name, pulling himself up by his bootstraps to go to Germany and study law, even at the cost of his rock star dreams, only to find himself on the center of the international stage with his debut single and taking on case after case with his camera-shy brother—what a dreamy figure. He really does have it all; nobody else can do it like him.

The darkness curls a hand over his shoulder, gentle this time, asking would you like to go now? You can let go. Let me do the rest; you've suffered enough. -

Summary
Ga'ran has long since gotten used to her sister's piercing stare. It lives in her dreams, her nightmares, her every waking hour, and the majority of the ones she's asleep for. A blue that shouldn't be achievable on earth is a sight she can ignore.
But now…now it's not that stare that watches her. This one has that hint of green beneath the surface, a little bit of earth to remind Ga'ran that that boy is oh, so very alive. The Sahdmadhi brat still lives and breathes, beloved by animals and people alike. Those who hate him actually hate his father, but they cannot find that man in his eyes. Nobody sees anything but Amara Sigatar Khura'in in her son's face.
Nobody but Ga'ran.
-
The brat's eyebrow twitches before he gives her a very, very polite smile. "My goodness, torture? Surely my clerical errors are not that heinous." -

Summary
Datz throws himself into a lounge chair. "Yeah, but that goes without saying when you talk about her. It's like saying the sky is blue. The sky's blue; justice always prevails; and Dhurke Sahdmadhi prefers to spend his trials flirting with the prosecution rather than actually defending his clients."
-
Amara tilts her head to the side with a far-off look in her eyes, like she's trying to identify how this conversation will go before she speaks. "My sister will be touring Europe in two days time. I wager that you can't find the finest earrings she has and bring them to me in that time.""You wish me to commit treason?"
"It's not treason," Amara grumbles, "if they're my earrings she nicked and won't return."

Summary
Nahyuta can't help the little laugh that escapes him at the memory of Apollo's favorite sentence. He regrets it instantly, when he feels how it hurts just about everywhere to do much more than breath in and out slowly, and tries to take in enough air to alleviate the pain. He ends up staring down at his lap and clutching at his chest, vision swimming again.
When he looks back up, it's at Dhurke, the disgraced prince consort and leader of the Defiant Dragons, not Dhurke, Nahyuta's father.
"Yuta, you hate wearing your hair like this."
-
There's no singing in the Palace, except for Rayfa when she performs the Dance of Devotion, and the only poetry to be found is in holy books he's read hundreds of thousands of times. It's not like that little house where Dhurke was constantly reciting all sorts of stories, entire eddas and epics beneath his breath, only breaking to mutter lullabies to his sons and daughter. Even now, Dhurke speaks in a rhythm, keeping a time only he knows, ready to sing his children to sleep at any moment.

Summary
"This can’t be a prank. How could anyone have found a child who looks and sounds like Apollo at this age, and taught them to speak Khura’inese in this dialect, with this accent? How could anyone have known Nahyuta would even walk this way through the courthouse, for this encounter to occur?
Nahyuta finally drops his hand to the top of Apollo’s head. 'It’s going to be alright,' he says, with no idea if that’s true."Still new to LA and barely treading water, Nahyuta is tasked with babysitting his brother one more time.

Summary
[Pre-AA4] In the space of a moment, a terrifying vision of blooming red, of blood spatter, of his assistant screaming in pain and writhing in a pool of his own blood - no, Kristoph can't let that happen.

Summary
“Apollo.”
He recognised that voice: though the resigned, almost angry cadence to it was gone. It was Nahyuta, free… but as though he didn’t quite know how to be yet.
“Nahyuta,” he said back, turning shyly to face him. It wasn't yet Yuty, but not quite Prosecutor Sahdmadhi either. Apollo wasn’t sure he wasn’t in a fever dream, still. None of the last three days had felt anywhere close to real.
or: nahyuta and apollo talk for the first time after dhurke's trial ends.

Summary
Even as Dhurke makes contact with the cavern floor, gritting his teeth at the impact and mentally apologising to the poor medium girl whose body he’s currently inhabiting - it doesn’t bother him. What bothers him isn’t the pain or their mystery attacker or the fact that they might not be able to escape.
It’s Apollo’s scream.
"Son? Are you alright?"
"I..." His voice is ragged, his breathing heavy and pained. "I fell on my ankle."

Summary
Everything went wrong, and Nahyuta had simply watched, unable - or was it unwilling? - to do a thing. Now, the night before his execution, he does what little he can. It's not enough.
It'll never, never, never be enough.
